A method for laminating and aligning an irregular-shape material is disclosed. Since the existing laminating material has an irregular shape, there is a problem with disabling alignment in a lamination process. Thus, the irregular shape of the laminating material is used to form a straight line correlated with a tangent line to the shape, and the straight line is used as the shape-aligned feature of the laminating material. Besides, the definition of an alignment relationship between the laminating material and a laminated object is established to adjust a lamination tolerance and prevent the laminating material from overhanging over the laminated object, thereby satisfying consumers' aesthetic needs for the appearance of products.

A method for laminating glass panels includes (1) providing a TFT substrate and a CF substrate to be laminated, in which the CF substrate is coated with a seal resin and the TFT substrate carries liquid crystal dropped thereon; (2) aligning and laminating the TFT substrate and the CF substrate in a vacuum environment to complete a lamination process; (3) applying UV light to transmit through the TFT substrate for carrying out UV curing of the seal resin interposed between the CF substrate and the TFT substrate so as to complete a UV curing process; and (4) removing the laminated CF substrate and the TFT substrate that have been subjected to the UV curing process out of the vacuum environment.

Embodiments relate to a resin film for laminated glass, laminated glass comprising the resin film, and a process for manufacturing the laminated glass. The resin film for laminated glass comprises a resin layer comprising a polyvinyl acetal resin and a contact surface in direct contact with glass, wherein the contact surface has an Rz roughness of 25 to 90 m and a maximum static friction coefficient at 20 C. of 0.85 to 1.60, and the compressive elastic deformation index measured in the perpendicular direction from the contact surface at 35 C. is 40 to 310 m/N.

A frame for bonding a first glass component to a second glass component with a desired thickness of adhesive is disclosed. The frame has a horizontal top portion sized to overlap the top surface of the first glass component. The horizontal top portion has a distal surface which is configured to contain the adhesive when poured on the top surface of the first glass component. The horizontal top portion is thicker than the layer of adhesive to be used so that the second glass component may be placed within the frame to abut the distal surface. The frame also has a vertical side portion which extends downward from the horizontal top portion and is sized to wrap around the first perimeter.

A glass assembly having a first glass component, a frame overlapping the perimeter and top surface of the first glass component, a second glass component atop the frame, and a layer of adhesive interposed between the two glass components. Also disclosed is a frame for bonding two glass components. Also disclosed is a protective glass assembly for a LCD having a top surface and perimeter. The protective glass assembly having a frame which overlaps the top surface and perimeter of the LCD, a glass component placed atop the frame, and a layer of optical adhesive interposed between the LCD and the glass component.

A laminating apparatus includes: a first jig including at least one curved portion; a second jig opposing the first jig; a pad portion on the second jig; a tube between the first jig and the pad portion, the tube contractable and expandable by a fluid to be injected thereinto; a pressure regulator to regulate a pressure of a fluid injected into the tube; and a fluid moving portion connecting the tube and the pressure regulator. A laminating method is also provided.

The invention relates to an oven (10) for the production of stratified sheets (12) from pre-assembled sheets (14). The pre-assembled sheets (14) comprise at least two sheets (16, 18) and at least one sheet of polymer material (20). The oven (10) comprises a hot chamber (22) which in turn comprises heating means (26) and an inlet opening (28) provided with first closing means (30). The oven also comprises a cold chamber (24) communicating with the hot chamber (22) and able to be separated from the hot chamber (22 via separation means (23). The cold chamber comprises cooling means (36) and an outlet opening (42) provided with second closing means (44). The invention also relates to a method for the production of stratified sheets.

A height-adjustable glazing for a vehicle, includes a laminated window including an exterior glass sheet, an interior glass sheet and an interlayer of plastic material located between said exterior and interior glass sheets, the laminated window having an external face intended to be oriented towards an exterior space, an edge and an internal face intended to be oriented towards an interior space, the height-adjustable glazing having a fixing zone wherein a window-holder is fixed to the laminated window, the fixing zone optionally having a fixing hole, wherein the window-holder includes a base plate having an external base face which is in contact with an internal face of the exterior glass sheet and located in a complementary recess in the plastic interlayer, and at least one cover flange having an external flange face which is in contact with an internal interlayer face of the plastic interlayer.
